Named after the reigning Sultan of Selangor at the time, this iconic building originally housed the offices of the British colonial administration.
The Sultan Abdul Samad Building is a prominent feature of Merdeka Square, which was the site where Malaysia declared its independence in 1957.

The monument’s design symbolizes the struggle for freedom and the triumph of unity and determination.

- A Famosa Fort - A Famosa Fort, located in Malacca, Malaysia, is a historic fortress originally constructed by the Portuguese in 1511. The fort was built under the command of Alfonso de Albuquerque, the Portuguese governor, following their successful conquest of Malacca, which was a crucial trading port in Southeast Asia.
The fort’s primary purpose was to serve as a stronghold and defense mechanism against potential attacks from rival forces and local kingdoms. Its strategic location offered a commanding view of the surrounding area, making it an important military asset during the Portuguese colonial period.
In the 17th century, the fort fell into the hands of the Dutch, who maintained and expanded it. However, much of the structure was demolished by the British in the early 19th century, leaving only the remnants that stand today.

St. Paul’s Church was originally built by the Portuguese in 1521, making it the first church constructed in Malaysia. It was initially known as the Church of the Holy Ghost and served as a place of worship for the Portuguese community. The church was dedicated to Saint Paul, and its elevated position on the hill provided a commanding view of the surrounding area.
In 1641, when the Dutch captured Malacca from the Portuguese, they repurposed the church as a burial ground for their important figures. The church’s function and structure evolved over time, reflecting the various colonial influences in the region.
